| − | :'''Effect Die:''' Effect dice won't always apply to a roll, but when they do we will use them. Since we are not using contests, this pretty much limits them to determining value for asset creation, complications, and hero dice.

:'''Complications:''' This game uses complications exclusively to track injuries and obstacles that carry mechanical weight. If a complication gets pushed up above [[file:d12a.png|24px|d12]] the character in question is taken out (if the GM deems that to be an appropriate consequence). The player in question may spend a PP to take a complication equal to the effect die of the roll that took him out and avoid being taken out. | :'''Complications:''' This game uses complications exclusively to track injuries and obstacles that carry mechanical weight.
